Water and Health in EgyptBladder Cancer Prevalence due to Water Pollution in the Nile Delta Region
In the past, the bladder cancer was more attributed to schistosomal
infection through Schistosoma haematobium causing Squamous
Cell Carcinoma (SCC).
This has changed in recent years to Transitional Cell Carcinoma (TCC).TCC is usually attributed to chemical intoxication.
The increasing trend of the non-bilharziae
bladder cancer in the Nile Delta,which is much higher than in other regions in Egypt, has been attributed to water pollution. It was assumed that water pollution “with pesticides”might be the reason. But it is also likely that emerging pollutants discharged with industrial wastewaters and textile dyestuff may cause the TCC registered.
Participation of two German Exceed Centers (TU Braunschweig on Water and LMU Munich on International Health), the Exceed Middle East Network, experts of Occupational Health and Cancer from Cairo, the Medical Centre and the Dept. Limnology of Mansoura
University will ensure success of this project.

MESAEP and its Objectives
MESAEP
is a Scientific Association that provides a platform to environmental scientists and engineers conducting research on environmental pollution and its mitigation in the Mediterranean Basin that includes also socio-economics, political and educational aspects.
Objectives of MESAEP
- Bringing together its members and further scientists from all science disciplines, economics and politics to examine current problems in the Med Sea Region
- Developing proposals concerning environmental quality and safety for enabling regulatory bodies to make proper decisions for evaluation and safe use of chemicals and physical agents
- For doing this, MESAEP considers all problems concerning the protection of life in the Med Sea Region from harmful effects of substances - natural and man-made
MESAEP members are mainly from Euro-Mediterranean Countries and Germany

MESAEP Symposia
MESAEP
was founded 1979 as a non-profit organization in Munich/GER through Mediterranean Scientist on Exchange at the National Environmental Research Center.
Since then, MESAEP organizes biannual Symposia
in different Med Sea Countries on
Environmental Pollution and its Impact on Life in the Mediterranean Region.
